To boost - "to help something to increase, improve, or become more successful". Your next project can become more successful if you read on.
Handheld devices, like your mobile phone, GPS modules, portable USB chargers, or any other battery operated device can use our new click board as a power source - check out BOOST 2 click.
Boost the voltage
BOOST 2 click is a DC-DC step-up (boost) regulator that has a fixed 5V output, which can be obtained from any low voltage input.
This click features very high efficiency, low noise and anti-ringing voltage output and
Think for a moment of the most simple project you could delve in to - a blinking white LED. This type of LED requires 3.3 V to emit light, and an alkaline battery can supply 1.5V. The solution for this is to use BOOST 2 click and step up the voltage.
Microchip's MCP1642B on board BOOST 2 click provides an easy-to-use power supply solution for applications powered by either one-cell, two-cell, or three-cell alkaline, Ultimate Lithium, NiCd, NiMH, one-cell Li-Ion or Li-Polymer batteries.

You can boost the voltage on your next project, and you can also boost somebodies confidence and give them a compliment this Friday.
Yours sincerely,
